<dt><em>Help build the test suite</em></dt>
<dd><p>Solicit more code for donation to the test suite: the more extensive the
testsuite, the smaller the risk of breaking things in the future! We can
keep code private on request.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><em>Bug hunting/squishing</em></dt>
<dd><p>Find bugs and write more test cases! Test cases are especially very
welcome, because it allows us to concentrate on fixing bugs instead of
isolating them.  Going through the bugzilla database at
<a href="https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/">https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/</a> to reduce testcases posted there and
add more information (for example, for which version does the testcase
work, for which versions does it fail?) is also very helpful.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><em>Missing features</em></dt>
<dd><p>For a larger project, consider working on the missing features required for
Fortran language standards compliance (see <a href="Standards.html">Standards</a>), or contributing
to the implementation of extensions such as OpenMP (see <a href="OpenMP.html">OpenMP</a>) or
OpenACC (see <a href="OpenACC.html">OpenACC</a>) that are under active development.  Again,
contributing test cases for these features is useful too!
